‘RHOM’ star Larsa Pippen was previously married to Scottie Pippen

Before sparking romance rumors with Marcus, Larsa was married to the NBA Great, Scottie Pippen. The former couple tied the knot in the year 1997 when Larsa was only 23 years old, while Scottie was 32 years old. Larsa and Scottie were married for nearly two decades before deciding to end their marriage. As 2016 rolled in, signs of strain began to show within their union, leading Scottie to initiate divorce proceedings in October. Despite this initial decision, the couple later chose to mend their relationship and reconcile during the early months of 2017.

After a brief period of reconnection, Larsa and Scottie split once again. Their revived dedication to their relationship was not destined to last, leading Larsa to ultimately initiate divorce proceedings for the final time in the year 2018. The legal process of ending their marriage was completed, and the divorce was officially settled in the year 2021. The exes share four children: sons Scotty Jr, Preston, Justin, and daughter Sophia.
